I applied through an employee referral. The process took 3 months. I interviewed at Nextdoor (San Francisco, CA) in Apr 2023
Interview
I worked with Ginny Leung, a recruiter at Nextdoor, who kept me up to date on the progress the company has been making in building its ads product team and had two great conversations with the Product Leads who were looking for technical product managers. The experience was a very positive one and even though I didn't get to the second round of interviews, I appreciate the engagement and professionalism.
Round 1: Recruiter screen, round 2: manager screen, round 3: take-home assignment with virtual presentation to three interviewers that included the hiring manager. Interviewers listened and asked questions throughout the presentations.
HR reached out to a 30 min phone chat. Typical generic behavioral questions, some around their products to get a sense of your interests and familiarity with the product.
Said in the interview that will update if getting to the next round with HM. But they completely ghosted me and never replied to any follow up emails I sent.
Terrible experience and recruiting practice.

I applied online. The process took 2 weeks. I interviewed at Nextdoor in May 2023
Interview
Had a great interview experience overall. The on-site loop consisted of your standard product loop with very relevant case studies. Very good recruiter experience as well, as everyone was very responsive and very accommodating in setting up interview schedules. Would interview again with them.
